We need a game thread
 

or perhaps I just missed it.
What is your game of choice?

World of Warcraft. Main on Sagares, NightElf Druid, Balance Spec (thinkin of changing to Feral...but I just got Moonkin form), Skinner/Leatherworker, Order of the White Lions, current lvl 41, Alylin.

I am not playing any MMORPGs. I tried Kingdom of Loathing, briefly, but then things got too busy at work and I wasn't able to keep up.

I did recently find a fairly nice site for Scorpion Solitaire, though.

Oblivion, Half-Life 2, Defcon, Quake 4... but I really dont play much anymore.

Nancy Drew!

hide the sausage

:lol:

I celebrated Saint Sneaky Pete's Day this morning on Kingdom of Loathing with blinking badges and orange glowsticks. I've ascended 15 times so far. The clan name is Cellar.

I beat Oblivion a while back. There's a new add-on pack out, so I may play a bit more when I pick that up.

I'm looking forward to "Spore" and "Portal".

I played WoW for a long time but finally broke the addiction. I might go back for the expansion -- I have this notion that I somehow let the people in my guild down, although they are fine without me. lol

I play Wolfenstein ET now. The new, cool shooters are fun enough, but ET is free, there's always a server, and it kills the time jsut as much.

EVE online is still taking 15 bucks out of my account every month. It was good too, but had the hyperaddictive qualities of WoW so I weaned myself. I'm starting to miss WoW. :lol: maybe I'll logon this week.

I can only play once or so a week. Its taken my over a year to hit 41.

I suck at strategy, MMORP, even group FPS CF's. Right now, all I play is an older game I picked up for $5 at Big Lots, "Tread Marks", an over-the-top tank shoot 'em up. Occasionally, I play my 20 year old in a networked game, but mostly, I just blow up the AI's, running at 40% skill. I'm not looking for a challenge, I'm looking to blow shit up.

Nintendo DS -- Mario Kart DS.

I have recently (one week) "completed" the game; I won gold trophies on each of the levels, 50, 100, 150 cc and then 150cc mirror mode. I have unlocked all the chars and all the cars. I'm a happy camper! But now I am trying to complete all the missions. I have set for myself a minimum goal of one star quality of performance on all the missions. I have completed the first two blocks of missions and am kinda stuck. I don't have the skills yet to "snake" well. Anybody here play this game? Tips welcome. I'm willing to trade. I do know a couple of shortcuts. Very very entertaining game, with considerable replay value.

I haven't played too many games lately, but for those that I have:
Neverwinter Nights (finally finished Hordes of the Underdark a few weeks ago - been too busy to play it)
Master of Magic (hooray DOSBox. Now if only an updated version would be made).
Bejeweled 2. Just as addicting as the first.

No MMORPG's for me. I haven't done those since the day they were called MUDs and were pure text.

I love games, haven't played in a while though. I've been hooked on Half Life 2: Episode 2. Can't wait untill Episode 3 comes out and Portal. Waiting on the Nintendo Wii to come out, but probably won't buy untill next year. Still yet to finish GTA: San Andreas on the PC. Been too busy playing the game of life right now though. lol

Actually episode 2 isnt out yet, they kinda messed up naming them, so HL2 is more like episode zero.

Yeah, you're pretty much right. I think they should have just went and put the rest of the "episodes" on Half Life 2 because the game was kinda short anyway. Still love the game though. It really draws you into the experience and makes you feel like you are Gordon. If anyone here is a fan of Half Life, check this comic out- http://www.hlcomic.com/archive/index.php You'll be sure to get some laughs out of this.

I just had to sacrifice all of my w0w playing. I only have access to the game at my boyfriend's and his...erm...playing has gotten out of control. In order to save his school grades he has just uninstalled w0w and his other games from his computer at my insitance. Ironic that this happened the day after I started this thread.

I'm playing occasional online poker, when the mood strikes.

Other than that my gaming is exclusively Nintendo DS at this point. Animal Crossing, Clubhouse Games, and Tetris, with some Brain Age and Trauma Center thrown in. Feel The Magic was cute in a spacy kind of way, but it got old after the first dozen missions.

Anyone play shadow of the colossus? That game is my favorite. But I also play WoW on server: Dalaran

welcome frenger...what class/race/spec? I've never heard of that game, but then again I'm not a big video game player, just my sacrificed w0w. /cry
btw shouldn't it be n00bie not noobie?

Is there something wrong with me that I've decided that it's very, very important to actually finish all the levels on Pirate Poppers?

I think I have three left to go.

It depends on what you're not doing instead.

I absolutly can not wait until episode 2 comes out! I would say that any of the games from the Half-Life saga would be my top picks... plus with episode 2 comes (finally) Team Fortress 2.

Other than that I'm just trying to scrape the money together to buy Neverwinter Nights 2.

well I just got Neverwinter Nights 2 over the weekend, and I've been hard pressed to put it down. For anyone who has ever played Neverwinter Nights, the sequel is even more amazing and with a very engrossing storyline. For anyone who likes to play RPGs, I highly recommend playing this one. Plus, it is the kind of game you can play over and over and have a different experience every time

There are over 20 games, you can play the PC, wifi and against a local opponent. Upload the game to them.
The Chess and Backgammon are awesome and there are Asian games to learn and play... very cool.

That sounds like fun, rkz. I can't wait to have net at home again. I miss online games. I REALLY miss Toontown! :) I wonder if Crazy Sadie Bumpenmonkey even still has an account?

I purchased Chessmaster9000, but it messed my laptop up.

I just finished Clive Barker's Undying. It failed to boot after almost a year of inactivity. I finally resolved the faulty copy protection issue and finished the game.

Along with Aliens vs. Predators, Undying is one of the creepiest games I've ever played. Maybe it's the music, or the long pauses walking in the shadows waiting for the action, but both games gave me the creeps.
